If I wasn't so busy teaching, I could write even more gems down.


Frank was sitting at my table coloring this morning (8:40 and I had already assigned him the special seat) when I asked a question.


"It sound like you have a cold! Are you sick?"




"Naw," he said, coloring furiously, "I'm not sick. Boogers just clog up my holes and make me talk funny."






Try sitting through that with a straight face.

    No, he doesn't sound sick at all. Hilarious.

    Good grief. I don't know how you keep a straight face with any of those kids.

    Have a fabulous weekend. :)

    Not possible! That's the kid you want in your class every year, just to keep you smiling!

    Coming from a family of teachers and cops, doctors and farmers, little gems like that fill my mind with delight and dismay...frequently at the same time.

    Reading about Frank all the time almost makes me wish for another little boy!

    He is full of charm!

    Absolutely hilarious!!! Children say the darnest things. It is amazing how much I rely on my Franks in my classroom to keep me going in the profession at times.

    With insight like that, I think Frank could quite possibly be the next Oprah.
